Scripture Saturday - September 12, 2015

Welcome to my new weekly feature, Scripture Saturday, where I will be sharing a verse of Scripture that has touched my heart during the week.

As I have shared with you in past blog posts, Deuteronomy 31:8 became my life verse early on as a new believer.

It is the Lord who goes before you. 

He will be with you; 

He will not leave you or forsake you. 

Do not fear or be dismayed.

I would end up writing the world's longest blog post if I were to recount all the future unknowns which had caused me anxiety until I meditated on this verse and visualized Jesus going before me to the appointment or into the situation; visualized Him being with me at the appointment or in the situation, and believing that He would not leave me or forsake me.

Last year I had set up a prayer room in our home where I used a stencil to affix my life verse to the wall as a constant reminder of God's ever present help and His promise to me.

So much has happened in the last year since I set up my prayer room.  We received an unexpected blessing!  A precious granddaughter, my own daughter and son-in-law's sweet baby.  As I've shared in earlier posts, they are currently living with us for a season and this Momma/Mimi could not be happier!

My prayer room is now the nursery!  Oh what joy!

This particular week as I looked at this view while feeding my sweet grandbaby Lexi...

I pondered the placement of the crib underneath my life verse and it's promise of protection for  my precious Lexi.  Oh what encouragement and hope Deuteronomy 31:8 gives as I pray for the salvation of my sweet granddaughter and the desire that she will walk in obedience with the Lord all the days of her life.

Maybe my life verse will become Lexi's.  Oh what a Godly legacy that would be!  <3
